Before sending this patch, I committed the code that added "pci14e4,449d" to vendor-prefix.yaml and net/wireless/brcm,brcm4329-fmac.yaml. Now I know the reason why my addition was rejected. By the way, except for the compatible binding, is there any other binding that I should remove??

RK3588 EVB1 has the same WLAN/BT module and I started looking
into adding support at a low priority. I think this is very
similar to the Qualcomm chip Bartosz Golaszewski worked on and
thus should get a pwrseq driver, which handles the enable GPIOs,
regulators and clocks. If any of them are missing the PCIe device
is not discovered. Note, that this will actually require describing
the PCIe device in DT to reference the pwrseq device.

Additionally the brcmfmac need to be extended to actually have
working wlan.

I put some links and notes about this here:
